Welcome back everyone. Thanks are due to Nick for performing two roles in
Phils absence. We have an exciting term ahead, and congratulations to the Ents
team for organising freshers week so well.

2: First Day

Meet and greet on the 4

show people where to go and answer any questions. JCR members may go to
brunch but not all at once. The communications team will be sorting the
noticeboards and the Ents team will be clearing out the JMA cupboard.

Corridor reps are sorted but Ents need to put up posters of the relevant reps in
the corridors. Corridor reps are in charge of settling in the freshers and for block
parties.

Meet The JCR in the Reddaway: everyone should be there and make a very short
speech.

Freshers bop: corridor reps with their corridors, families with families.
Everyone should continue to check the rotas, including the more extensive
one posted by Phil to the JCR group.

3: Second Day

JCR Welfare breakfast: Everyone should attend as turnout is usually quite high.
Pan, Ashwin and Jake will stay in the Newton puband help with pool/pub quiz

Matriculation shepherding requires JCR members (selected by Phil- check the

Those assigned to this are reminded that they must walk with the freshers

Freshers will go round town finding clues. JCR will buy a prize for the team that
